The Roman army had been a power that has often beleived to be a very unique and very precise. The Army had been made up of legions and these
legions had numerous amounts of men. Within these legion were centurys, Led by a centurion and often consisted of about 80-100 men. The number of units per legion and the specifications of that legion had varied on where they had been located. The Legion was very large and had to be housed somewhere. Therefore they had a castra whisch is like a fancy name for big camp, Almost like a fort. They had set up permanent camps for the legions in certain areas to repell attacks. If the Roman arny had been on the move then they were to set up small tents. Unlike other military personnel they had mules that would cary most of the heavy equipment for them.
The standard was carried around by standardbearers and this showed what that specific unit had accomplished and what they as a unit did for the others. Also this was a sense of pride and people throughout the battle had used the striking visuals of the standard to give them a confidence booster and it increased the units morale. The people who had deserted the battlefield would be known to have a giant "wanted" poster on thier back from that point on. The people who disobeyed the law of the roman law had been punished by either death or serious punishment. This meaning that the people who committed small offenses would only have to be hit, flogged, or public beating. Rather than the death penalty, dishonerable discharge, or decimation.
